Coming from the Martin Margiela Spring/Summer 2009 accessories collection is this new nail keyring. Once again we like the different way of thinking by the designer. Also the contrast of using gold, on this otherwise basic setup is intereting.

The Martin Margiela Nail Keyring is now available at Oki-Ni.

When you want to make your watch something more than a timepiece, chances are you turn to the futurists in Geneva – Urwerk. Their latest model the UR103 is something to marvel. “The ‘T’ in the 103T is at first a mystery, but only until the first look down through the massive sapphire crystal into the mechanism below. There you will sense a shape before you see it. A form slowly emerges from the orbital cross and stretches its mesmerising legs: ‘T’ for Tarantula! URWERK’s latest addition to the UR103 collection has a few genetic codes borrowed from one of the most famous members of the world of arachnids.”

The details on this movement are simply too long to list. Visit the Urwerk 103T site for every last detail.
